NJRonbo Posted May 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted May 9, 2023 (edited) Hello, fellow cruisers! Two questions... 1. Say Check-In is supposed to open on May 15th. What time does the check-in officially open in the app? Is it midnight that morning? 2. I read somewhere that Passport information may be needed at check-in (we are on a closed loop to Bermuda). My girlfriend is on the same reservation but I don't have access to her Passport. Can I check in and supply my information and she'll automatically be checked in at the same time pending her information being provided later? Or, does all the information for both of us need to be provided at that initial check-in? Thanks in advance! Edited May 9, 2023 by NJRonbo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruisinfly Posted May 9, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 9, 2023 For my recent check in, it opened around 7am Eastern time the day of registration, but I hear it varies. Passport info was required in the app but not on the website. Ask your girlfriend to send a picture of her passport to you if you are checking her in. You can select your port arrival time and complete the rest of check in later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She recently lost her license and is in the process of getting a replacement. I take it that as long as I upload a photo of her Passport that will suffice?

Thanks for the clarification. So, I will have my GF send me a photo of her Passport and I will manually enter the information since I don't have the original in hand. As long as a driver's license is not involved (at the moment), it's all good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The app can scan the passport bar code info from a photo. I do it all the time. I have color copies ( not sure color is necessary) of both our passports which I use to checkin on the app, saves opening the safe to get them out out just to do check in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll make certain I get sent a clear photo with the barcode visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
